Hello:

I had a similar problem before on openSUSE 10.2.
I could not mount an Olympus C480 in KDE.
I can't remember the error message it gave.
But dmesg reported that the USB system detected the camera.
I circumvented the problem by mounting the drive manually as 
root. I think it was a KDE bug.

So try to mount the camera manually as root, eg:
# mount /dev/sdax /mnt 

You can get the correct value of the device (sdax) plugging in 
the camera and then running dmesg. The last lines report if the 
USB system detected the camera correctly and which device it 
was attached to.
